The transmission in your vehicle is a remarkable contraption. Somehow it shifts your car from gear to gear, adjusting to your demands for speed and acceleration. What goes on inside that transmission is a mystery to most, that is unless you are on the team of technicians at Quaker Transmission in West Warwick. Specializing in transmission, clutch, and drive train repair, Quaker Transmissions has long been regarded as the place to go to "demystify" the transmission and find honest, professional service from the true experts. Owners Rob George and John O'Hara have worked as a team since 1976, and in that time, have built a reputation for excellence, integrity and skilled workmanship. Most importantly, they have developed lasting relationships with their valued customers, especially when it comes to the repair of their vehicle's transmission.
